Baked Chicken Taquitos by Amanda Cracroft

1/3 C (3 oz) cream cheese
1/4 C green salsa
1T fresh lime juice
1/2 t cumin
1 t chili powder
1/2 t onion powder
1/4 t granulated garlic, or garlic powder
3 T chopped cilantro
2 T sliced green onions
2 C shredded cooked chicken prepared w/ taco seasoning
1 C grated pepperjack cheese

small corn tortillas (OR Pillsbury refrigerated biscuits)
kosher salt
cooking spray

Heat oven to 425. Lightly coat baking sheet with cooking spray.

Heat cream cheese in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds so it's soft and easy to stir. Add green salsa, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, onion powder and granulated garlic. Stir to combine and then add cilantro and green onions. Add chicken and cheese and combine well.

(You can prepare up to this step ahead of time. Just keep the mixture in the fridge.)

Prepare filling with Biscuits: Roll out prepared biscuits and fill with chicken mixture, wrap biscuit around filling. Bake 425, 12-15 minutes till golden brown.

Prepare filling with Corn Tortillas:
Work with a few tortillas at a time and heat in the microwave until they are soft enough to roll without cracking. It helps to place them between damp paper towels. Usually 20-30 seconds will do it. If you find yours are cracking when you roll them or are coming unrolled right away, just try heating them longer and try the paper towel thing.

Place 2-3 T of chicken mixture on the lower third of a tortilla, keeping it about 1/2 inch from the edges.

Then roll it up as tight as you can.

Place seam side down on the baking sheet. Lay all of the taquitos on the baking sheet and make sure they are not touching each other. Spray the tops lightly with cooking spray or an oil mister and sprinkle some kosher salt on top. ( Be sure to do this cause it add extra yummy-ness)

Place pan in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until crisp and the ends start to get golden brown.
